COLOR: Light garnet

AROMATICS: Red raspberry, spice

FLAVOR: Cherry, raspberry, tobacco, spice

WHY IS THIS WINE IMPORTANT? Pinot Noir is an incredibly difficult grape to grow and is a mirror of the harvest period. This one is on the lighter side similar to those produced in Bourgogne France. It is varietally correct and well made. Aging is done in primarily Hungarian Oak for 8 months.
